Definitions
- This invention relates to a process for producing cumene and particularly, but not exclusively, to an integrated process for producing cumene and for converting the cumene to phenol.
- Cumene is an important intermediate in the chemical and polymer industries, with global cumene production currently exceeding twelve million metric tons annually.
- the majority of all cumene manufactured in the world today is used for the production of phenol.
- the demand for phenol for the manufacture of Bisphenol-A and subsequently polycarbonates is accelerating, owing to the broadening applications of polycarbonates in the electronic, healthcare, and automobile industries.
- the deleterious effects of any nitrogen impurities in the isopropanol can be effectively ameliorated by treatment of the dried recycle stream to the alkylation reactor.
- the removal of the nitrogen impurities can be achieved by adsorption on acidic solid adsorbents, such as molecular sieves or acidic clay, and/or by treatment with an acidic water solution, such as dilute sulfuric acid.
- the isopropanol can be mixed with fresh benzene and the resulting mixture treated to remove the nitrogen impurities.
- FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of a process for producing cumene by alkylating benzene with isopropanol according to a first example of the invention.
- the catalyst employed in the alkylation step may comprise at least one medium pore molecular sieve having a Constraint Index of 2-12 (as defined in U.S. Pat. No. 4,016,218).
- Suitable medium pore molecular sieves include ZSM-5, ZSM-11, ZSM-12, ZSM-22, ZSM-23, ZSM-35, and ZSM-48.
- ZSM-5 is described in detail in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,702,886 and Re. 29,948.
- ZSM-11 is described in detail in U.S. Pat. No. 3,709,979.
- ZSM-12 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,832,449.
- ZSM-22 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,556,477.
- ZSM-23 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,076,842.
- ZSM-35 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,016,245.
- ZSM-48 is more particularly described in U.S
- the alkylation catalyst may comprise one or more large pore molecular sieves having a Constraint Index less than 2.
- Suitable large pore molecular sieves include zeolite beta, zeolite Y, Ultrastable Y (USY), Dealuminized Y (Deal Y), mordenite, ZSM-3, ZSM-4, ZSM-18, and ZSM-20.
- Zeolite ZSM-14 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,923,636.
- Zeolite ZSM-20 is described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,972,983.
- Zeolite Beta is described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,308,069, and Re. No. 28,341.
- Low sodium Ultrastable Y molecular sieve (USY) is described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,293,192 and 3,449,070.
- Dealuminized Y zeolite (Deal Y) may be prepared by the method found in U.S. Pat. No. 3,442,795.
- Zeolite UHP-Y is described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,401,556.
- Mordenite is a naturally occurring material but is also available in synthetic forms, such as TEA-mordenite (i.e., synthetic mordenite prepared from a reaction mixture comprising a tetraethylammonium directing agent).
- TEA-mordenite is disclosed in U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,766,093 and 3,894,104.
- the alkylation catalyst comprises at least one molecular sieve of the MCM-22 family.
- molecular sieve of the MCM-22 family includes one or more of:
- Molecular sieves of the MCM-22 family include those molecular sieves having an X-ray diffraction pattern including d-spacing maxima at 12.4 ⁇ 0.25, 6.9 ⁇ 0.15, 3.57 ⁇ 0.07 and 3.42 ⁇ 0.07 Angstrom.
- the X-ray diffraction data used to characterize the material are obtained by standard techniques using the K-alpha doublet of copper as incident radiation and a diffractometer equipped with a scintillation counter and associated computer as the collection system.
- MCM-22 Materials of the MCM-22 family include MCM-22 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,954,325), PSH-3 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,439,409), SSZ-25 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,826,667), ERB-1 (described in European Patent No. 0293032), ITQ-1 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,077,498), ITQ-2 (described in International Patent Publication No. WO97/17290), MCM-36 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,250,277), MCM-49 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,236,575), MCM-56 (described in U.S. Pat. No. 5,362,697), and mixtures thereof.
- Related zeolite UZM-8 is also suitable for use as the present alkylation catalyst.
- the effluent stream from the alkylation reactor can be cooled, separated into a water-rich aqueous stream and a water-depleted aromatic stream comprising cumene, unreacted benzene, and other reaction products.
- the phenol and acetone recovered from the cleavage reaction effluent are used in a molar ratio of 2:1 to produce Bisphenol A, thereby resulting in a net surplus of acetone.
- the isopropanol produced in the process described above will contain relatively high levels (up to 10 ppm by weight) of nitrogen compounds generated as a result of the use of amines as neutralizing agents and corrosion inhibitors in the oxidation and cleavage stages of the process. If not removed or reduced in concentration before the isopropanol is recycled to the alkylation stage, these nitrogen compounds will act as poisons to the molecular sieve alkylation catalyst and thereby reduce cycle life of the catalyst.
- treatment to remove nitrogen-containing impurities is generally carried out by (a) passing the relevant stream through one or more vessels containing at least one solid adsorbent, such as a molecular sieve, a resin, an acidic clay or a membrane, and/or (b) washing the stream with an acidic aqueous solution, such as dilute sulfuric acid.
- the at least one solid adsorbent comprises a clay. Suitable clays include bentonite or other montmorillonite-containing clays.
- the clay may have been activated by treatment with an acid, such as sulfuric acid.
- the clay is typically used as a granular or powder material.
- a suitable example of a clay adsorbent for use in the present process is the F-24 series clay supplied by BASF.
- a batch of acetone obtained from a commercial phenol/acetone plant was hydrogenated to isopropanol by contacting the acetone feed with hydrogen in the presence of a nickel hydrogenation catalyst at a temperature of about 80° C. and a pressure of about 3,600 kPa.
- a portion of the reactor effluent was recycled back to the reactor inlet to keep the temperature rise below about 30° C.
- the acetone conversion was about 99%.
- the isopropanol product was analyzed by a gas chromatograph equipped with a Nitrogen-Phosphorous Detector (NPD) and found to contain about 0.2 wtppm nitrogen.
